Directions

Remove the rind from the Brie and cube it.
- Add to a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
Whip on medium–high until smooth and creamy — it will look lumpy at first, but keep going.
Add the lightly whipped cream and keep mixing until it’s pale, silky, and mousse-like.

Melt the butter in a small sauté pan over medium heat.

Stir in 3 tbsp Pass De Scotchie and cook 30 seconds until glossy and saucy.
